Successful NCA candidates have 6-12 months of IT experience and can assist in operating and managing a Nutanix Enterprise Cloud, while successful NCP candidates have approximately 3-6 months experience working with an AOS implementation as well as additional general systems administration experience (typically 1-2 years).

The new Nutanix Certified Expert – Multicloud Infrastructure (NCX-MCI) Certification recognizes Multicloud infrastructure practioners who have mastered the skills and abilities contained in the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Solution Design (ECSD) Boot Camp to teach strategic, enterprise-class design and delivery skills to Multicloud Infrastructure Practitioners.

This course, and the solution design method it teaches, was developed for the NPX Program. It focuses on discovery of business requirements, as well as creating and delivering Cloud-Smart solutions that leverage both the Nutanix stack for Private Cloud and the best offerings from our Public Cloud partners.

The NCX-MCI certification is designed to provide an intermediate step between the NCM-MCI and NPX certifications. NCX-MCI allows ECSD boot camp graduates to validate their advanced design skills and product knowledge by successfully presenting a template-guided solution to a panel of experts. For those who want to go deeper into the core AOS product, and for those who will be engaged in post-sales implementation of G2000-scale solutions (and the documentation required for success) the NPX Program is the next step.
